UHF or L 960 – 1 164 MHz Distance Measuring Equipment (DME) ARNS At risk - UK OfCom is proposing a shared use with wireless A/V system TACAN (PMSE) for big events. Possible European-wide extension. IATA submitted comments. LDACS (for datalink), LDACS (for Alternative-PNT) AM(R)S The frequency band 960–1 164 MHz is planned for future air-ground (and air-air) data communications (e.g. LDACS). LDACS developers are considering the frequency bands 963.5 – 970.5 MHz and 1149.5 – 1156.5 MHz as the most promising option. Nevertheless, a careful frequency coordination of LDACS and DME/TACAN is to be developed in order to enable a common and undisturbed operation. 978 MHz Universal Access Transceiver (UAT) AM(R)S UAT is used in the USA by aircrafts flying below 18,000 ft. 1 020 - 1 040 MHz and Secondary Surveillance Radar (SSR) ARNS At risk - UK OfCom is proposing a shared use with wireless A/V system. 1 080 – 1 100 MHz 1090 Extended Squitter Possible European-wide extension.

WRC-2015 agreed on a regulatory spectrum provision related to Command and Control Link for Unmanned Aircraft in a form of a resolution. See RESOLUTION COM4/5 (WRC-15). This resolution will be reviewed at WRC-2023. WRC-2015 agreed that assignments to stations of geostationary FSS satellite networks operating in 10.95-11.2 GHz (space-to-Earth), 11.45-11.7 GHz (space-to-Earth), 11.7-12.2 GHz (space-to-Earth) in Region 2, 12.2-12.5 GHz (space-to-Earth) in Region 3, 12.5-12.75 GHz (space-to-Earth) in Regions 1 and 3 and 19.7-20.2 GHz (space-to-Earth), and in 14-14.47 GHz (Earth-to-space) and 29.5-30.0 GHz (Earth- to-space), may be used for UAS CNPC links in non-segregated airspace, provided that the conditions specified in RESOLUTION COM4/5 (WRC-15) are met. While this resolution will enable UAS to continue its operation and development, the resolution itself is a political compromise. While it is acceptable by ICAO, the resolution required ICAO to work diligently in identifying technical/operational requirement and developing SARPs for UAS within the next 4 years and to report the progress made at WRC-2019. IATA needs to be actively involved with this ICAO process as UASs are expected to share the same airspace with commercial airlines.

  • Instrument Landing System and Its Requirement in India
    JOURNAL OF CRITICAL REVIEWS ISSN- 2394-5125 VOL 7, ISSUE 14, 2020 INSTRUMENT LANDING SYSTEM AND ITS REQUIREMENT IN INDIA Shivendra Shrivastava1, Rahul Kumar Verma2, Gp Capt M Shrivastava3 1,2Amity University, Noida 3Air Force [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Abstract: The ILS is a navigational aid invented in the forties it helps aircrafts in landing. The pilots still consider the ILS as one of the most reliable means of guidance it continues to be used around the world. This paper examines what is an ILS its categories, components and the relevance of ILS in India. Since all Indian airports do not have ILS it causes disruption of flights, passenger discomfort and loss of business. The ILS has been compared with other advance systems of navigation in the market. Considering seamless movement of flights a necessity for business and development of India, the paper proposes ILS/GAGAN installation at all Indian airports. Key words - ILS, Localizer, Glide slope, Yagi antenna. BACKGROUND The development of an instrument landing system (ILS) began during World War I in the twenties but it was not until the thirties that some substantial research was carried out. The airports used to fire flares to guide the commercial airliners. There was a lot of research work carried out by USA and UK from 1930 to 1947 in developing a system in order to land aircrafts safely in low visibility conditions. This was a direct outcome of World War 2 since during the war the USAF bombers could not carry out bombing over Europe in foggy weather conditions.

Abstract: The paper depicts research concerning the value of the electric component of the electro- magnetic (EM) energy determined by the NHT3DL meter by Microrad with the 01E measuring probe during a number of flights made by Aero AT-3 R100, Cessna C172, and Tecnam P2006T fixed wing aircrafts and a Robinson R44 Raven helicopter. The point of reference for the recorded measurement was the normative limits of the electromagnetic field (EMF), which can influence a pilot in the course of a flight. Selected studies of the maximum value recorded by the meter was E = 10.66 V/m when landing at an airfield equipped with the VHF (Very High Frequency) omnidirectional radio range (VOR) approach system. Particular attention has been paid to changes in electric field intensity during the operation and their effects on the type of radio navigation systems as well as communication with the airfield control tower. The obtained results were validated in the Statistica 13.3 software for the purpose of a detailed stochastic analysis of the tested values.
